You think Chili Davis ruined the offense? You are the most clueless dumb f*** ever
Assuming everyone is healthy, this would likely be postseason rotation:
Degrom
Max
Bassitt
Megill
That leaves Carrasco, Walker and DP for the pen.

I wouldn't be surprised if Carrasco is the 4th starter (if healthy) and Megill is in the bullpen. Megill reminds me a lot of former Mets pitcher John Maine. The stuff has a lot of movement and he can be dominant when he is on, but needs to be more economical with his pitching. In 3 of his last 4 starts Carrasco has gone at least 6 2/3 while throwing 91, 96, and 83 pitches in those 3 starts. Megill has only hit 6 2/3 ONCE all season. In the last 4 starts he has been at 87, 92, 88, and 94 pitches.

Also worth noting Megill's career high in innings is 130 (last season) prior to that his career high was 71. In fact, including college he's thrown 388 total innings (2015, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2021, 2022) COMBINED.
@Noahsyndergaard
Hate to break to you, but this song ain't about you. This was about Reid, a great teammate, throwing a 1 pitcher No-Hitter, which is a rarity by today's game standards. Mets have a good team, enjoy that instead of stirring shit. As do the Angels, so drop the drama and move on.

That's rich coming from Synergaard!
@Noahsyndergaard
Oh and to be clear, I don't think a combined no hitter is the same as "real" 1 pitcher no hitter.
And Ban the Wave
And Mr. Met is a creep
And @RichardStaff
wife is never coming back.
So he's denying it was a shot at the Mets, and now essentially admitting it was? lol

My initial reaction was it was a shot at Johans no hitter, not the one from this year.
Total nonstory though
agree with the post above it was a positive for the team to move on from some of the talented players we've had who carried around baggage. it's one thing to talk and back things up, it's another to keep talking after 2, 3, 4 years of not backing things up.
Who? Spencer Strider?

is going to be a PROBLEM for the Mets soon. Sitting 99 with a 43% whiff% on his slider. Absolutely NASTY. deGromian. 2021... 94 innings 153 k's lol
Who? Spencer Strider?
Yeah, silly me forgot to include his name. Spencer Strider. He's not the biggest guy but has MASSIVE legs and helps generate really incredible pure stuff. He's nasty.

What do they plan to do with him? It seems like he only pitches once a week and it seems like a long relief role.
Are they stretching him out to start?
I have him in fantasy baseball because as you say his stuff is legit power and I feel like he will eventually have an important role just not sure what it will be.
His ERA is down to 0.59 with 1 1/3 scoreless frames today. 🔬
Is that really the impression people have of him? I'm not going to research his career on my phone but what are you referring to where you feel like he disappointed for multiple years?

i had a longed reply typed out and bbi crashed so a slightly shorter version (that ended up not so short).
he was great as a rookie and his 2nd year was his best, it was the only year he's received a CY vote (8th) or made an ASG. But since then he's only ever come close to being an ace in persona.
in the next 3 years from 2017-2019 he was as disappointing as the team around him. In 2019 the team won 86 games, JDG won his 2nd CY, and the team could have had a postseason with JDG/Thor/Wheeler/Stroman all healthy - but Thor went 10-8 with a 4.3 era. over those 3 years he was 24-14 with a 3.2 era in 60 something starts. not bad but not an ace.
the last 2 years he's thrown 2 innings, and last year in particular he did a lot of talking about coming back ahead of schedule only to then suffer setbacks. if he'd just come back in the normal 14-16 months maybe he's the difference in august/sept last year?
the cherry on top was his public campaigning to remain a met, wanting the QO, and not wanting to go elsewhere. cohen apparently wined and dined him. and after they gave him the QO he wanted he left in the middle of the night without giving them a chance to match the offer.
so like i said, after 5 years of a lot more talk than walk i wish him well on his 100 or so innings this year but am perfectly at peace with the extra pick and money from his QO reinvested into bassitt/sherzer. he can keep all his mets subtweets to himself.
It was no-hitter. Don’t be a thin-skinned prick like Noah and just enjoy it.
